Channel Table Columns

ColumnDescription
StatusIndicates whether the channel is enabled or disabled. A channel may only be deployed once it is enabled. When the Mirth Connect server starts up, all enabled channels are automatically deployed.

For channel groups, this column is Enabled if all channels underneath the group are enabled, Disabled if all channels underneath the group are disabled, and Mixed if some channels are enabled and others disabled.

Data TypeThe inbound data type of the channel's source connector.
NameThe name of the channel / group. This column also shows any tags associated with a channel.

A special [Default Group] group is present in the table and may not be removed. When viewing the channel table in group-level mode, all channels that are not part of a group will be organized into this group.

IdThe unique ID of the channel / group.
Local IdThe unique numeric ID of a channel used to identify the set of tables associated with the channel's messages, attachments, and statistics.

Rev Δ = Channel Revision - Deployed Revision
